I've got a couple of flyrod musky under my belt since the last post. This is the 1 I caught tonight. Its the biggest I've caught so far. I'm guessing at least 40+ and every bit of 20 pounds.

It was a 5 min. fight. It was the hardest fighting 1 yet just a bull of a fish.

nice fish. Saw one bigger than that saturday afternoon sunning. is that fly hair or synthetic ? i can't hook them on single hooks. I Have a heck of a time throwing double hooks. I am going Have to get a 10 wt..

Alot of time at the vise and even more time on the water go into fly fishing for musky. But all the quite time tying and the sore shoulder from casting is worth every second. Just for the 5 min. of choas after 1 of these trys to rip the rod outta your hand.

Hey the line forms to the left...Just kidding. It more luck than skill in my case. The skill is casting a ten with 7 ft. of leadcore looped on to a big bug line. Oh if forgot to tell ya about the 6/0 articulated attached at the end. Do that for 6 or 7 hours and your ready.

Falsecasting is held to a minimium. If i false cast 3 times its 2 times to many. More time with the fly in the air and not in the water is just wasted energy. You will pay your dues with these fish. I did, 2 weeks of fishing 2 broken rods then I landed my first fish. That was the hardest 1.
